B F#m A B

Verse 1:
   B                            F#m
The first snow, first winter of my life
       A                          B
I was told it was the height of me
    B                                     F#m
The first dance, well, the first one that counted
              A                                B
Felt like my blood was built from crackling lights

Pre-Chorus 1:
B                  F#m
All this ancient wildness
     A               B
That we don't understand
    B                  F#m
The first sound of a heartbeat
  A              B
To riots roaring on


Chorus:
B                             F#m
This is not a love you've had before
                      A                       B
This is something else, this is something else
    B                            F#m
This is not the same as other days
                      A                        B
This is something else, this is something else

    B                           F#m
Shouldn't need to be so fucking hard
                     A                       B
This is life on earth, it's just life on earth
     B                               F#m
It doesn't need to be the end of you, or me
                     A                        B
This is life on earth, it's just life on earth

B F#m A B

Verse 2:
   B                                 F#m
The first light, first light on the silent shore
           A                       B
Just the ships that anchor me and you
      B                           F#m
The way home, this is always the way home
           A                          B
So you can rip that map to shreds, my dear


Pre-Chorus 2:
   B             F#m
But all we ever wanted
   A                     B
See miles and miles from here
     B                   F#m
In the first days in a strange new land
 A               B
We could be sailors


Chorus:
B                             F#m
This is not a love you've had before
                      A                       B
This is something else, this is something else
    B                            F#m
This is not the same as other days
                      A                        B
This is something else, this is something else

    B                           F#m
Shouldn't need to be so fucking hard
                     A                       B
This is life on earth, it's just life on earth
     B                               F#m
It doesn't need to be the end of you, or me
                     A                        B
This is life on earth, it's just life on earth

B F#m A B
B F#m A B

Refrain:
    B                           F#m
Shouldn't need to be so fucking hard
                     A                       B
This is life on earth, it's just life on earth
     B                               F#m
It doesn't need to be the end of you, or me
                     A                        B
This is life on earth, it's just life on earth
